    Baby Chicks Dead - Not Sure What Happened

    Sounds like most of its an issue of security. I keep my chicks caged until they're big enough to "hold their own" against my grown chickens and it seems to work best for me.

I meant that still air incubators temp can vary wildly from one corner to another and that moving an egg from the temp it was at the whole time during incubating to a higher or lower temp different area in...

    Hatching Bantams?

    Still airs Temps tend to vary so wildly across them that it tends to cause problems.

    8 Oz Crele Hen Super Micro

    Not sure if this is where I should post this (posted under flock stories as well) but I went to pick up peachicks from a man near me who hatches them out. As we were passing by his birds I saw this teeny tiny little girl in a cage and ended up taking her home with me :D. Now I have seramas but...
